As one of the prominent Texarkana, Texas Vending Companies, we understand the distinct needs of our region’s workforce—from the shift workers at Red River Army Depot to the healthcare and manufacturing professionals throughout Southwest Texarkana and the Richmond Road commercial area. Our healthy vending program delivers fresh, nutritious snacking options tailored to the demanding schedules of Texarkana’s blue-collar and military-adjacent workforce, with machines stocked exclusively with 100% healthy and organic snacks. FitPick® is a distinguished vending and self-pay market program designed to assist employers and consumers in selecting products that adhere to established nutrition standards, making it an ideal fit for the high-traffic commercial zones along State Line Avenue and across our region’s key employment centers. Its straightforward guidelines provide clear criteria for calories, fat, sugar, and sodium, making it an ideal choice for both employers and consumers.
Our membership in NAMA, the leading professional organization for vending companies, enables us to provide our customers with the nationally acclaimed “Fit Pick” healthy vending machine program. This initiative showcases a selection of snacks, beverages, and foods that conform to rigorous standards on calories, fat, sugar, and sodium—essential for supporting the wellness needs of Texarkana’s healthcare sector, the University area workforce at TAMUT, and the diverse industries that fuel our two-state economy. Helping customers make healthier choices strengthens workplace productivity and morale across Texarkana’s manufacturing, retail, and government facilities.
Whether opting for a fully branded machine or incorporating healthier options into existing ones, FitPick® stands out effortlessly across Texarkana’s diverse workplace environments.
Fit Pick® employs eye-catching stickers to mark the vending machine slots filled with Fit Pick® approved snacks, making it easy for the shift workers at the Red River Army Depot, manufacturing facilities, and healthcare institutions throughout the Summerhill Road district and Southwest Texarkana to identify nutritious choices during their breaks. More prominent clings and stickers offer detailed insights into the Fit Pick™ nutritional standards that resonate with Texarkana’s health-conscious workforce.
Fit Pick® labels distinguish between two sets of nutritional guidelines tailored for working professionals across all sectors. The most popular adult criteria is the 35-10-35 standard (max 35% calories from fat, max 10% from saturated fat, and max 35% product weight from sugar), perfect for busy employees managing long shifts at the four States Fairgrounds venues, transportation and logistics hubs, and government facilities. Additionally, Fit Pick® provides labels for items meeting The Alliance for a Healthier Generation’s Competitive Foods Guidelines, ensuring compliance in educational settings like TAMUT and school districts serving the Texarkana region.
Fit Pick®’s consistent labeling system is recognized across communities, counties, and states nationwide, making it ideal for Texarkana’s unique position straddling the state line where employees frequently work across both sides of State Line Avenue and beyond. Offices in different locations—whether in Downtown Texarkana’s bustling commercial core, the Richmond Road commercial area, or facilities serving the retail and hospitality sectors—can implement the same program seamlessly.
Our aim is to supply straightforward yet crucial nutritional information at the point of sale, empowering Texarkana’s blue-collar and military-adjacent workforce to make healthier snack choices informed by clear, “better for you” guidelines during their workdays and shift changes. When workers have immediate access to transparent nutritional data, they’re more likely to select options that sustain their energy and wellbeing throughout demanding shifts.
FitPick® simplifies healthy snacking by clearly identifying “better for you” options, boasting nearly 700 tasty FitPick® approved products. For Texarkana’s diverse workforce—from manufacturing facility employees on extended shifts to the 3,000+ workers at Red River Army Depot changing shifts throughout the day—having reliable access to nutritious vending machine choices removes guesswork and streamlines the selection and purchase process when break time is limited and options matter.
The FitPick® program recognizes the importance of functional foods,
acknowledging that snacks are often equivalent to meals.
VendVue is revolutionizing workplace vending throughout Texarkana by dedicating ourselves to comprehensively understanding our clients’ wellness goals and needs. The Red River Army Depot’s 3,000-plus workforce and Texarkana’s robust manufacturing sector demand flexible, nutritious options that fit the demanding schedules of shift workers across multiple daily transitions. While traditional vending machines offer up to 45 diverse products, including popular “pleasure foods” like candy bars, chips, and soft drinks, there’s a rising demand for healthier options among blue-collar professionals and military-adjacent employees who prioritize sustained energy throughout their workday. This shift towards health consciousness among consumers and organizations has inspired us to offer tailored solutions that serve the unique needs of Texarkana’s industrial corridors, from the Richmond Road commercial area to Southwest Texarkana facilities. We’re delighted to collaborate with our clients through the personalized FitPick® program, catering to their wellness requirements with a variety of healthy alternatives that support the productivity and wellbeing of Texarkana’s hardworking population.
